Arizona Cactus Garden at Stanford June 1, 2024
It was a beautiful day today in the Bay Area, about 72 degrees so I decided to check out the Arizona Cactus Garden at Stanford. Saw quite a lot of birds this morning!
Trip to Mexico City Feb/Mar 2023
Briefly in between jobs, I took a quick one week trip to Mexico City. I really enjoyed all the history, food and the hot air balloon ride was fantastic.

Arizona Cactus Garden at Stanford - May 1, 2022

The hummingbirds were a little skittish since it was a crowded day, but I got a few snaps in the Palo Verde tree and again when they take the threads from the barrel cacti to make their nests.
